Not investment advice. Muhabbit scores how much a story may matter, not which way to trade.
A Turkish court has consolidated the Diyarbakır case against former HDP co-chair Selahattin Demirtaş, covering five separate charges tied to 2016 events, with a parallel case in Mersin, transferring the merged file to Mersin's 14th Criminal Court of First Instance after a jurisdiction ruling. Prosecutors are seeking between nine and 15 years in prison for Demirtaş across the combined proceedings. The move centralizes the long-running litigation against the prominent Kurdish politician into a single venue, a shift worth tracking for how the consolidated case proceeds and whether further hearings are scheduled in Mersin.
